Student Activities

Study after study shows that students who regularly participated in after-school programs surpassed their peers in academic performance as well as exhibit notable improvements in work habits and behavior.  

Here at Reed-Custer Elementary we are excited to offer several extracurricular activities that serve as an introduction to the wider world of extracurricular activities we offer at our Middle School and High School.

RCES Choir - Open to 4th and 5th grade students who want to sing in a large group.  Students have 4 performances and learn the basics of choral signing and vocal technique.  Students gain an appreciation for different styles of music from different cultures and communities and learn how to work as a team to create something enjoyable to listen to.

Ace Choir - Open to 5th grade students who want a more challenging ensemble to participate in.  Students learn to read sheet music, sing difficult music, and explore different genres and languages that broaden their musical horizons.  It is open to any 5th grade student regardless if they've been in choir previously.

Speech Team - Opportunity for students to perform in front of an audience.  Students memorize and act out a 5-10 minute shit at a one-time state competition.  In the practices held before and after school, they are coached in speaking and acting technique and have a blast boosting their confidence and entertaining others.  Joining is available to all 5th graders who are willing to practice regularly at school and at home within a very short season.

Intramural Sports - Several intramural sports are offered including volleyball & basketball.  Stay tuned to school announcements for dates, times, and further information.
